The Santa Barbara Channel study (SBC) is a closely articulated
program involving both observational and computational techniques
to obtain the best estimate of the physical oceanographic
conditions ...

ETOPO5 is a 5 arc-minute global relief model of Earth's surface that integrates land topography and ocean bathymetry. It was built from numerous global and regional data sets. This historical dataset ...

A 50-m resolution gridded synthesis of all available bathymetry (ocean depth) data for the main Hawaiian islands, including ship-borne multibeam sonar surveys as well as the Smith and Sandwell measured ...

A 50-m resolution gridded synthesis of all available bathymetry (ocean depth) data for the main Hawaiian islands, including ship-borne multibeam sonar surveys. Land topography from USGS DEMs are included ...

CTD casts were taken through holes in the ice floe at various locations during ice stations 3, 4, 6 and 7. Two Seabird 37M microcats were used. One microcat did not log time, whereas the other did. ...

The importance of gelatinous zooplankton in marine systems worldwide is increasing. In Southern Ocean, increasing salp densities could have a detrimental effect on higher predators, including penguins, ...

Water quality monitoring is conducted at 26 National Estuarine Research Reserves (NERR) at four locations within or adjacent to the reserve. The following parameters are collected at least every 30 ...

Sinking particles are a major element of the biological pump and they are commonly assigned to two fates: mineralization in the water column and accumulation at the seafloor. However, there is another ...

Previous studies of the Indo-Pacific region of Antarctica show that the margin of the ice sheet in this region has advanced and retreated into deep interior basins many times in the past. The apparent ...

As long-lived animals, marine mammals must be capable of accommodating broad variations in food resources over large spatial and temporal scales. While this is true of all marine mammals, variation ...

This award, provided by the Antarctic Geology and Geophysics Program of the Office of Polar Programs, provides funds for a study to investigate the tectonic development of the southwestern Ross Sea ...

This project determines the recent history of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) through a multidisciplinary study of the seabed in the Ross Sea of Antarctica. WAIS is perhaps the world's most critical ...

The Atlas of Northern Gulf of Mexico Gas and Oil Reservoirs is a compilation of
geologic and engineering data for over 4,000 reservoirs in the Gulf Coast
region. Data was compiled through a cooperative ...

This file contains current meter data from the moored buoy on position 54deg
41.8min N, 12deg 42.3min E, over the Darss sill. Current meters are situated at
7m, 12m, 17m and 19.5m depth. Data consist ...

The main objective is to derive estimates of primary production from
satellite ovservations of ocean colour. Data will be available for
oceanic and stratified shelf waters within months of the start ...

All models produce an educated guess at future ocean conditions. Ocean models perform particularly well at predicting phenomena such as tide height, but less well at predicting currents. The largest ...

The National Estuarine Reserve System (NERRS) was created by Congress through
the Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972. Currently, 23 NERR sites, including
the Jacques Cousteau NERR, have been established ...

This directory contains a "quick-look" hindcast of the Indian Ocean
wind-driven circulation from a numerical ocean model being run at USF
using near-real-time observed winds. The model products are ...

The NSF-supported research icebreaker Laurence M. Gould operates year-round in support of the U.S. Antarctic Program, carrying out global change studies in biological, chemical, physical, and oceanographic ...

The data set comprises the series of nine Discovery Reports published
between 1929 and 1957, containing station lists of measurements taken
by RRS Discovery and RRS William Scoresby and staff of the ...

The British Oceanographic Data Centre publishes a CD-ROM of the
Biogeochemical Ocean Flux Study, which contains data from the North
Atlantic Ocean and the Southern Ocean. See Parameter Keywords and ...

This data set is an IBM compatible PC-based Marine Atlas covering the Northeast
Atlantic and mainly centered on the British Isles. It comes on 5 1.4mb floppy
diskettes and runs under DOS Version 3.0 ...

The target area was along the eastern segments of the West Scotia Ridge, an ocean spreading centre which stopped spreading about 10 million years ago. The spreading centre has high topographic relief ...
